Blues for You
Journey Home: A Blues Ballad of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
Well I miss you baby
Expressing longing and yearning for a loved one.
I gotta get back home to you
Desire to return home to the person missed.
Well I miss you baby
Reiteration of missing the loved one and the intent to return home.
I gotta get back home to you
Reaffirmation of the desire to go back to the beloved.
I've seen a million women
Encountering numerous women but recognizing that only one matters.
Only one of them will do
Emphasizing the uniqueness and irreplaceability of the missed person.
Well I'm east of somewhere
Being in an unspecified location, feeling a sense of displacement.
You know what I mean
Indication of being away from a familiar or desired place.
Well I'm west of nowhere
Feeling distant from any recognizable destination or comfort zone.
And all points in between
Feeling lost or adrift between different points or directions.
Up or down
Indecision or confusion regarding choices or directions.
North or south
Feeling disoriented or unsure about which path to take.
Right or wrong
Sense of moral or directional uncertainty.
I'm inside out
Feeling emotionally turned upside down or conflicted.
Gotta get back
Strong determination to return to the missed person.
I know you're cryin
Acknowledging the loved one's emotional state.
Cryin for your man
Recognizing the partner's sadness and emotional need.
Baby, I'm tryin
Expressing effort in trying to comprehend the partner's feelings.
Tryin hard to understand
Struggling to understand and empathize with the partner's emotions.
Another turn, the rubber burns
Continuation of a journey, disregarding external distractions.
No one else is my concern
Priority given solely to the pursuit of returning to the loved one.
I gotta get back
Reaffirmation of the commitment to returning home.
Well I miss you baby
Restating the emotional longing for the missed person.
I gotta get back home to you
Reiterating the urge to return home to the loved one.
Well I miss you baby
Reaffirming the emotional attachment and longing.
I gotta get back home to you
Reemphasizing the strong desire to go back home.
I've seen a million women
Recalling encounters with many but acknowledging only one matters.
Only one of them will do
Highlighting the singular importance of the missed person.
